People I know with tractors are pretty cool. Pulled many idiots out of ditches with other people's tractors haha.

Probably just lucky but most people seem to enjoy getting out the 4x4 or tractor to help.

I know the police near me (I’m in the town but the county is very rural) rely on farmers for rescues because they can get there faster than tow trucks usually do if something needs to be moved fast (blocking traffic, vulnerable occupants etc) they usually just hit up the nearest farm for someone with a tractor to help. I’ve seen them use them in flood rescues too since they are much higher than other vehicles and can drive through deeper water to stranded people.
